I am no make up guru.
Though I am not a makeup guru, i really like makeup tools
After checking the make up I have (including the ones given to me as a present)
I was currently using my prescriptives mineral powder, which was a pasalubong from my mom.
I checked our refrigerator and saw 2 more packs of shiseido cream foundation.
and I remembered we have kept it there since it was still sealed.
So I decided to finish those first.
I used to love these, but I remember I stopped using this because of the sponges.
There sponges are good but hard to clean when already stained.
So I decided to hunt for the right applicator.
A lot might probably try foundation brushes,
but I am not fond of them,
so I ended up searching for the right flat brush or buffer brush.
Luckily I have found 3 for comparison.
Only used with cream foundation
Ellana Flat top brush - Length less than 5" , brush diameter 3/4"
Suesh Flat foundation brush - Length less than 7" , brush diameter 7/8"
E.L.F. Powder brush - Length less than 7" , brush diameter 1-1/4"
Ellana Flat top brush - Length less than 5" , brush diameter 3/4"
I got this for (P400)
Pros: easy to carry around, short handled.
No shedding and bleeding, very dense
Cons: For me, its too small, takes a while to finish buffing, could work better on mineral powder application or good as an eye cream applicator
Repurchasing power:
Sorry but No
Suesh Flat foundation brush - Length less than 7" , brush diameter 7/8"
This was the very first brush I have tried for cream foundation (P800)
Pros: It buffs cream foundation easily, densely pack.
No shedding and bleeding
Cons: For me , it still takes a while to finish but faster than the ellana brush
Repurchasing power:
Maybe
E.L.F. Powder brush - Length less than 7" , brush diameter 1-1/4"
I got this for (P300)
Pros: Lets me finish buffing in no time, spreads evenly
Bristles are soft, so far no shedding and no bleeding
Cos: I can't find one as of the moment
Repurchasing power:
Yes, truth is I'm itching to order another on for back up
but I am waiting for my sonia kashuk and prescriptives air brush from my aunt.
so I will update you guys by then.
These brushing takes a while to dry.
*Edit,
I actually sold my suesh brush.
Thank you for the buyer.
When I visited suesh store at trinoma,
I noticed that the new flat top brush is not as dense anymore.
It feels similar to my sonia kashuk brush.
I hardly have time to blog but I have added so many brushes since this post.
Will try to update
